Survival curves are plotted for thirty larvae, each treated with classical antibiotics (a), WF2 (pleurocidin) (b), combinations of WF2 and either WF3 or WF1a (c), or WF3 and/or WF4 (d), in each case compared with fifty larvae subjected to burn only or burn plus infection (A. baumannii ATCC 17978) over 96 h. Percentage survival along with significance tests of protection against infection, due to therapy, according to Log-rank (Mantel–Cox) or Gehan–Breslow–Wilcoxon tests are shown in Table 5.
